So why the skepticism and outrage? Well, you can argue that James has brought it on himself. Some of his work in the flopping department over the years rivals the work of Manu Ginobili and Derek Fisher, the Obi-Wan and Yoda of Flopping [Check out The NBA’s Top 20 Flops and Fisher’s title as the NBA’s Worst Flopper], and it seems to have ramped up in the last two years.

LeFonda James is a flopping queen. I don’t recall ever seeing Jordan or Magic or Bird flop. When was the last time Kobe flopped? They are all too busy competing.

Notice that every single one of these videos is from Heat era LeBron, I guess Eric Spolestra did diserve his coach of the year award for teaching his players to be more efficient floppers. I don’t know why Wade never gets called out, he’s worse. There isn’t a shot that he takes where he does not end up on the ground.
